Paperless Registration

In the past, our registration process

involved lots of paper.

In 2014, we had over

1.25 million paper

registration

documents signed and

scanned into Epic.

Average registration

time with PAPER took

10 minutes

3,897,690 pieces of paper

were used, costing over

$428,745.90

That’s about

527 trees.

And we spent over $93,986

annually on scanning services

before paperless registration.

Registration

We mapped the

Digital Patient Experience

to better understand the needs of our

patients across the continuum of care

beginning end

In the first half of

2017, over 1.3

million documents

were digitally

signed.

Principles for

Tool

Selection

enable positive experience for both employee and patient

leverage existing partnerships if possible

work seamlessly with other registration technologies such as Patient Secure

integrate with Epic

offer a flexible platform that would allow for more than just paperless registration

We counted clicks to ensure that the registrar was

in fact able to work faster.

We timed patients to ensure that registration was in

fact quicker.

• Usability with staff

• Usability with patients

• Trials with multiple types of

• Devices are enrolled in Airwatch, which allows us to manage

them remotely

• Updates can be pushed to devices through Airwatch

• Airwatch Secure Launcher is installed on the devices which

allows us to lock down the home screen of the device to the

Lessons Learned

- Ensure that documents format correctly on tablet and are not merely copies of paper documents

- Ensure that signature requests on electronic forms are in the appropriate place

- Turn on certain interfacing early enough to allow all pieces of the platform to function properly at go-live

- Create an FAQ document for go-live to easily address common questions

- Find secure locations for use of tablets to ensure that they are not taken

- Do not assume that registrars already have full understanding of the registration process before implementation

• In 2016 we signed more then 125,000 surgical/ procedural clinical

consents.

• By the first quarter of 2018 we will be fully digital with all consents.

What We

Considered

• Strong clinical leadership

• Defined, discrete clinical episodes

• Relatively predictable

Clinical Opportunity

• High volume

• Procedure-based

• Attractive to Medicare

Financial Opportunity

Total Joint Replacement• 469-470 Major joint replacement of the lower extremity

• 800 Medicare cases annually

• 31 physicians; 55% employed / 45% voluntary

Spinal Surgery• 459-460 Spinal fusion (non-cervical)


• 18 physicians; 56% employed / 44% voluntary

Cardiovascular Surgery• 216-221 Cardiac valve


• 8 physicians, 100% employed

Bundle Payment Strategy

What We Selected

Cost Drivers Across Episode of Care

Levers to reduce internal hospital cost:

• Reduce LOS

• Reduce implant, supply, and/or drug costs

• Reduce OR time

Internal Cost Reductions

Levers to reduce 90-day episode spend:

• Reduce readmissions

• Alter discharge patterns (home-based vs. facility-based care)

• Decrease utilization (e.g. consults, ancillary tests

• Reduce SNF LOS

90-day Episode Spend Reductions

Standardization

Systematization and standardizing

are the foundations of good

operational routines that can be

measured and facilitate

improvements, outcomes, and

ever-greater efficiency.

Advantages of Standardization

1. Increases efficiency

2. Improves ability to monitor and study individual factors

3. Improves communication

4. Allows for identification of outliers or modifiable factors

Lessons Learned

- Concept of bundle payment is still very new

- Continuous engagement requires reminders – re-education around reports, and data, new goals and targets, and regular discussion of performance

- Data is consumed and understood differently by different groups

- Leverage IT platforms (EMR, HIE, analytics) to identify population of interest at preadmission and during inpatient stay

- Early identification of BPCI patients is critical to success

- Place focused information in the hands of clinicians on a timely basis in order to facilitate care redesign

- Develop tools to risk stratify patients to allow targeted clinical intervention

- Developed and tested Care Coordination workflow manually

- Advance clinical and technical relationships with post acute partners to expand influence with care delivery
